測(cè)量儀器本身是否會(huì)對(duì)測(cè)量結(jié)果造成偏差？
                                                 ——在渦度協(xié)方差系統(tǒng)中，如何確保測(cè)量準(zhǔn)確

        三維超聲風(fēng)速儀是渦度協(xié)方差測(cè)量系統(tǒng)中的核心測(cè)量組件。有研究表明，在對(duì)風(fēng)速進(jìn)行測(cè)量時(shí)，哪怕超聲風(fēng)速儀傳感器的體積很小，也會(huì)對(duì)風(fēng)速測(cè)量結(jié)果產(chǎn)生偏差^{【1，2，3，4，5，6】}。另外，如果采用合體式設(shè)計(jì)思路，即把三維超聲風(fēng)速儀和氣體分析儀合二為一。由于氣體分析儀位于三維超聲風(fēng)速儀采樣空間內(nèi)部或與其非常接近^【7，8】，風(fēng)速的測(cè)量誤差就會(huì)很大（圖1）。

圖1 若物體距離三維超聲風(fēng)速儀太近，如氣體分析儀，就會(huì)導(dǎo)致其風(fēng)速測(cè)量不可靠。

 
        理論上，渦度協(xié)方差系統(tǒng)測(cè)量同一渦旋的風(fēng)速和其對(duì)應(yīng)的氣體密度。但在實(shí)際測(cè)量時(shí)，卻不能這樣。合體式設(shè)計(jì)思路，由于其測(cè)量組件本身就會(huì)對(duì)渦旋造成擾動(dòng)，這種擾動(dòng)所導(dǎo)致的測(cè)量誤差很難被量化，且不可進(jìn)行后續(xù)訂正【6，7，8，9】。
 
那怎么辦呢？研究表明，一個(gè)簡單的解決方案就是采用分體式思路：三維超聲風(fēng)速儀和氣體分析儀以一定間距（10-20cm）分開測(cè)量。這種分體式測(cè)量，只需對(duì)原始數(shù)據(jù)做一個(gè)簡單的數(shù)據(jù)訂正就可以得到準(zhǔn)確結(jié)果【10，11，12】。
